    Default Just added to my collection Dovo Best Quality Razor 5/8 Full Hollow Straight Razor

    What do you guys think? These are the pics from the listing, have yet to receive the razor. I know it has a crack on the scale but that is fixable/replaceable.

    Congrats on the new Dovo.
    Other than the cracked scale, it looks to be in fine shape.

    I think it will be a nice shaver for you. Let us know how it goes.

    Scales don't look great but the blade seems pretty nice. Depending on what it cost, you may have gotten a decent deal on a good razor.

    Great score , I have a Dovo Best myself, first real straight I bought , still a great shaver and since the scales broke on mine Pixelfixed set me up right , I have the only Dovo Best Quality with Ivory scales!! I affectionately refer to it as my "turd in a Tuxcedo" It's a real workhorse enjoy. Tc

    My first straight razor as well and it is awesome....will always have a place in my rotation, and will never be sold nor gifted away...all around it's a perfect blade to start with.

    Add me to the ranks... exact same story.

    They don't make 4/8 Best Quality anymore though.
